Translation of megakhuimyak’s post (RUS)

In its 20 years of independence, Kazakh society has still not been able to define what it considers most important:

- preserving Kazakhstan as a sovereign state
- preserving Kazakhs as an ethnic group
- preserving and developing the Kazakh language
- preserving and developing Kazakh culture

Moreover, no one in our society has pointed out that these priorities are basically mutually exclusive. But I have the feeling that if we keep dragging on with this search for priorities, they will eventually tell us that there are no choices and decide everything for us.
